October was a blast. A's mom got to come visit. We ate passion fruit (may-pops), persimmons, and figs (some of us for the first time) at Bert and Alicia's Hungry Gnome Farm. We got 400 strawberry plants in the ground (and we managed to protect them from the two nights of frost in October so they are still growing nicely).
I enjoyed the cooling weather and took advantage of it to bike to work several times over the month (I put about 55 miles on the bike over the past four weeks, which isn't much for pros, but it's a lot for me). I acquired the necessary gear to continue biking through the colder months, which I'm quite looking forward to.
